[contextly_sidebar id=”QbvaBHpoxNQAy1Ov7TqFnOmuBkFyaIza”]This reduction has been occasioned by the cedi\u2019s recent appreciation against its major trading currencies.<\/p>\n

Since the cedi began appreciating against the dollar, there has been enormous pressure on the OMCs and the BDCs<\/strong> <\/span><\/a>to significantly reduce the prices of petroleum products which have gone up twice since June 15 when they were given the mandate to determine prices.<\/p>\n

However, the former CEO of the Volta River Authority (VRA), Dr. Charles Wereko-Brobby is demanding a least, a 23% reduction from the OMCs.<\/p>\n

He argued that the price indicators \u00a0of the Bulk Oil Distributors show a decrease of over 25% so \u201cif BDCs have dropped their price by 23% why are we not talking about 23% drop at the market place and why are we not talking about the fact that a cedi of two weeks ago is worth more than a cedi of today so maybe the OMCs should look at the value of their margins.\u201d<\/p>\n
